1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a neurotropic double-stranded DNA virus that causes cold sores, keratitis, and rarely encephalitis in humans. Nonpathogenic HSV-1 gene transfer vectors have been generated by elimination of viral functions necessary for replication. The life cycle of the native virus includes replication in epithelial cells at the site of initial inoculation followed by retrograde axonal transport to the nuclei of sensory neurons innervating the area of cutaneous primary infection. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the molecular basis for HSV cell entry, nuclear transport of the genome, virion egress following replication, and retrograde and anterograde axonal transport in neurons. We discuss how each of these properties has been exploited or modified to allow the generation of gene transfer vectors with particular utility for neurological applications. Recent advances in engineering virus entry have provided proof of principle that vector targeting is possible. Furthermore, significant and potentially therapeutic modifications to the pathological responses to various noxious insults have been demonstrated in models of peripheral nerve disease. These applications exploit the natural axonal transport mechanism of HSV, allowing transgene expression in the cell nucleus within the inaccessible trigeminal ganglion or dorsal root ganglion, following the noninvasive procedure of subcutaneous vector inoculation. These findings demonstrate the importance of understanding basic virology in the design of vector systems and the powerful approach of exploiting favorable properties of the parent virus in the generation of gene transfer vectors.
